TL;DR: In this article, the authors used remote sensing and GIS tools for studying land use/land cover change and integrating the associated driving factors for deriving useful outputs. And they used the CA-Markov Chain Model (CAMCM) to identify the spatial and temporal changes that have occurred in LULC in this area.
Abstract: Remote sensing and GIS are important tools for studying land use/land cover (LULC) change and integrating the associated driving factors for deriving useful outputs. This study is based on utilization of Earth observation datasets over the highly urbanized Allahabad district in India. Allahabad district has experienced intense change in LULC in the last few decades. To monitor the changes, advanced techniques in remote sensing and GIS, such as Cellular Automata (CA)-Markov Chain Model (CAMCM) were used to identify the spatial and temporal changes that have occurred in LULC in this area. Two images, 1990 and 2000, were used for calibration and optimization of the Markovian algorithm, while 2010 was used for validating the predictions of CA-Markov using the ground based land cover image. After validating the model, plausible future LULC changes for 2020 were predicted using the CAMCM. Analysis of the LULC pattern maps, achieved through classification of multi-temporal satellite datasets, indicated that the socio-economic and biophysical factors have greatly influenced the growth of agricultural lands and settlements in the area. The two urbanization indicators calculated in this study viz. Land Consumption Ratio (LCR) and Land Absorption Coefficient (LAC) were also used, which indicated a drastic change in the area in terms of urbanization. The predicted LULC scenario for year 2020 provides useful inputs to the LULC planners for effective and pragmatic management of the district and a direction for an effective land use policy making. Further suggestions for an effective policy making are also provided which can be used by government officials to protect this important land resource.

TL;DR: In this paper, a multi-layer perceptron-Markov chain analysis (MLP-MCA) integrated method was used to monitor and predict the future land use and land cover (LULC) change scenarios in Patna district, Bihar using remote sensing images.
Abstract: Land use and land cover (LULC) changes are recognized as one of the most significant driver of environmental changes, mainly due to rapid urbanization. In this paper, an attempt has been made to appraise the ability of multi-layer perceptron-Markov chain analysis (MLP-MCA) integrated method to monitor and predict the future LULC change scenarios in Patna district, Bihar using remote sensing images. A supervised maximum likelihood classification method was applied to derive LULC maps from 1988, 2001, and 2013 Landsat Thematic Mapper (TM)/Enhanced Thematic Mapper Plus (ETM+)/Operational Land Imager (OLI) images, respectively. The LULC maps of 1988 and 2001 were employed to predict the LULC scenario for 2013 using MLP-MCA method. The predicted result was compared with the observed LULC map of 2013 to validate the method using kappa index statistics. Finally, based on the results, the future LULC change prediction for 2038 and 2050 was performed. The outcomes of this study reveal the rapid growth in ​built up area results in continuous decrease in agricultural lands.

TL;DR: A cellular automaton is developed to model the spatial structure of urban land use over time and to link the results directly to general theories of structural evolution.
Abstract: Cellular automata belong to a family of discrete, connectionist techniques being used to investigate fundamental principles of dynamics, evolution, and self-organization. In this paper, a cellular automaton is developed to model the spatial structure of urban land use over time. For realistic parameter values, the model produces fractal or bifractal land-use structures for the urbanized area and for each individual land-use type. Data for a set of US cities show that they have very similar fractal dimensions. The cellular approach makes it possible to achieve a high level of spatial detail and realism and to link the results directly to general theories of structural evolution.
